Chapter 57: Public Opinion
Almost overnight, news about Fang Liu, the wife of the heir to the Mo family, was spread like wildfire.
Fang Liu seemed to be mentally disabled when she was younger. This was not a secret, however. Many people had seen Fang Liu when they went to the Fang family home, and at that time, Fang Liu had a dull expression on her face, reacting slowly to everything around her.
Fang Yan, who had bullied Fang Liu since she was a child, possessed many embarrassing photos of Fang Liu.
Some photos contained images of Fang Liu pathetically kneeling on the ground while she ate. Some of them included images of Fang Liu with a leash around her neck, and some photos were of Fang Liu standing in the snow during winter with barely any clothes on.
Fang Liu was forced to endure these humiliations when she was younger, so she pretended to be mentally disabled to survive being tortured by Fang Yan.
Fang Yan enjoyed taking photos of Fang Liu’s dull expressions and sharing them with her friends just to make a mockery of her step-sister.
After the humiliating photos of Fang Liu spread across the internet, it caused an uproar and went viral. Countless internet trolls mocked the Mo family for allowing such a dimwitted and pathetic woman to marry into the family.
Those people proceeded to distort and twist the humiliating photos of Fang Liu, using insulting captions to produce memes and spread them across social media.
Mo Yu knew that it was too late to stop the uproar spreading across the internet. The overwhelming ridicule and insults about Fang Liu were all over social media.
Those photos deeply hurt Mo Yu. His eyes were red with rage—he resembled an unsightly beast. He fiercely punched the computer screen in front of him.
“Do not let Fang Liu find out about this!” Mo Yu, who was in a fit of rage, made everyone present fall silent with fear.
When Mo Yu returned home, Fang Liu was seen staring blankly at a pot of flowers on the table in front of her. She was lost in her thoughts as she held a pair of scissors in her hand, not knowing where to start trimming.
Mo Yu slowly walked behind Fang Liu, opened his arms, and pulled her into his warm embrace.
“Why are you staring at the flowers like that? Are you too afraid to trim them?” The man’s deep voice was seductive, causing Fang Liu’s heart to beat faster.
She nodded and said, “I’ve never trimmed flowers before. I thought it would be easy since I saw someone do it on TV just now. However, I didn’t expect it to be so daunting,” Fang Liu’s voice seemed to be filled with disappointment.
Fang Liu wasn’t dimwitted, and she was actually quite intelligent. However, she had a poor upbringing in the Fang family home for many years, so one could say that she was entirely cut off from the outside world. Fang Liu was unfamiliar with many things, and when she would first encounter a new experience, she would find that she became clumsy and mystified.
Mo Yu placed one hand on Fang Liu’s shoulder and placed his other hand onto Fang Liu’s hand, holding a pair of scissors.
“It doesn’t matter if you haven’t trimmed flowers before. You can simply cut it however you want.” With Mo Yu’s gentle guidance, the two of them cut off a small lily.
“Wait, we shouldn’t rush. Let me take a look before we continue trimming. It would be a pity if we were to make a mistake, and it turned out to be ugly.” Fang Liu hurriedly interrupted Mo Yu’s guidance.
Mo Yu smiled faintly and rested his chin on Fang Liu’s shoulder. His voice was gentle as he said, “I’m not rushing. Let me show you. Although you have no experience with plants, the colors of the lilies that you chose complimented each other very well. The only problem is that it’s messy. I simply need to trim off some of the excess flowers so that it will look tidier.”
In just a few moments, Mo Yu created a work of art with a pot of flowers. Fang Liu’s eyes widened, and she could not help but praise Mo Yu’s creativity.
At first, it seemed like he was being rash while trimming the flowers. However, it turned out to be beautiful when he was done.
Fang Liu attempted to trim a pot of flowers on her own with Mo Yu’s words of encouragement and guidance. Although the end product was not as beautiful as Mo Yu’s, it still represented Fang Liu’s characteristics very well.
“My wife is simply amazing,” Mo Yu complimented. “You’re a fast learner. But since I was able to teach you so well, don’t you think you should reward me tonight?”
Fang Liu began to blush when she heard Mo Yu utter the word reward. It seemed that Mo Yu liked to ask for rewards from Fang Liu no matter how small the favor was.
Mo Yu liked to hug and kiss Fang Liu, but she was shy by nature, so her face would turn red whenever Mo Yu showed his affection toward her.
“I’m not going to reward you…” As Fang Liu was about to reject Mo Yu angrily, he suddenly lifted Fang Liu by her waist.
“I beg your pardon? Did you say that you’re going to help bathe me? Oh, how sweet of you!”
“That’s not what I said at all!” Fang Liu wanted to slap Mo Yu..
